I'm using this all the time myself. There is no login to YouTube required and it supports adding subscriptions and doing everything important you can do on YouTube.

And the best part is no ads whatsoever.

I tried it there but my browser works better is my first impression, I'm using thorium with Ublock, YouTube enhanced and some other addons.

Did honestly just give this a test but I kept getting videos just freezing up for no reason.

I enjoy the Android app. Wish the ui was a bit better tho, hard to navigate sometimes

I just wish it supported tabs, I'd switch immediately if it did

Yt in browser (ff+UBO) plays less than a minute, then stops. Freetube works. I hate google.

I use ff+uBO, and all works, never saw an ad. I am also using a VPN that blocks/filter ads, that might help.
